Welcome to the distinguished musical world of Ralph Beeby & the Elephant Collective; here music is adored far beyond the evocative, sometimes simple, and succinct lyrics and cherished beyond the charm and confidence of the performer. Music is endeared simply for being music, with its stylistic sound and caliber transcending mere ‘songs’- this is music that delves into something special. Instead of merely copying their predecessors, Ralph Beeby & the Elephant Collective come with a sound and strength of their own—a tried and tested sound within the traditions of first-class singing. They bring a peculiar wealth of diversity with their nostalgic yet relevant, unheard-of but warmly familiar sound.
Having a bad day? Here’s the cure for that in the name of “There is a Well”- a 4-track EP by Ralph Beeby & the Elephant Collective. Sit comfortably on that recliner sofa, push the play button, and immerse yourself in this over 16-minute cathartic listening experience, and you’ll be glad you did.
A collection brimming with both sonic elegance and depth, this EP is a true testament to the collective’s distinct sound ideology. Ingeniously straddling the realms of blues and classic rock, there is no world Ralph Beeby & the Elephant Collective do not touch here!
“There is a Well – Radio Edit” is a raw masterpiece by any measure. And how about those immensely expressive raspy vocals? They give the song its rock thrill. The gently strummed guitars form the melodic backbone of the track, and the more the tune progresses, the more it takes you with it and moves you, especially the insane electric guitar licks.
“Undercurrent – Electric Version” is a masterclass in classic rock bursting with awe-inspiring electric riffs. Boasting plenty of swagger and personality, this track feels perfect for a live performance. Such guitar picking is seriously tasty and mind-blowing, to say the least. The expressive and demanding vocals breathe life and ensure you are thoroughly entertained, if that’s what you are looking for!
“So Why Now?” has been set to somewhat whimsical lyrical observations, underscoring the collective’s unique and yet easily accessible songwriting. That guitar intro in “Never Catch Me Now” is enough to make you fall in love with this special track, and the vocals are incredibly gravelly and ideal for the genre.
There you go, folks; “There is a Well” is recommended therapy for all your worries and lack of enthusiasm. Follow the link below and savor it to the fullest!
